Construction-related traffic impacts are subject to change and are dependent on favorable
weather conditions and construction status.

To minimize disruptions for Labor Day holiday travelers in Wisconsin, most major highway
construction projects will be suspended during the three-day weekend. However, motorists may still
encounter lane restrictions and traffic delays.

Traffic is expected to be heavy throughout the holiday period with peak travel times likely to
occur from noon until 8 p.m. on Friday, August 29, and Monday, September 1. Drivers should give
themselves sufficient time to reach their destination and be patient when encountering traffic
congestion. Increased traffic during the holiday will make driving through work zones especially
challenging.
